Kia ora! I'm a #nature nut, addict of #iNaturalist NZ — Mātaki Taiao, and an #ecologist at #LincolnUniversity in #Aotearoa-#NewZealand. I spend an inordinate amount of my time counting nature to watch what's changing (see https://wildcounts.org/). #TwitterMigration #NZTwits #ecology #EcologicalMonitoring #NaturalHistory #iNaturalistNZ #iNaturalist #wildcounts #RStats #Biodiversity Born when there was 326 ppm carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

For #MusicMusiciansAndMashups on #JukeboxFridayNight, here's "Bridges" by Ani DiFranco, spinning up a song using spoken thoughts from Utah Phillips, an American folk singer, storyteller, poet and labor organizer.
"“You sing a lot about the past
You always sing about the past
You kind of live in the past, you know?”
And I say to him, “I can go outside and pick up a rock that’s older than the oldest song you know
And bring it back here and drop it on your foot
Now the past didn’t go anywhere, did it?
It’s right here, right now"
